We recognise the very real need to create an effective and global trade association which can bring closer together both the requirements of the remittance sender, often sending home life-saving money, and the service providers who now make up a very diverse sector.”

Its starting point around itinerant workers has widened to include new residents, affluent expatriates, second homers, overseas student fees and retirees.Services and technologies such as payments service providers, mobile payments and prepaid cards enable value to be transferred to and fro at much improved fee and service levels.Its scope has broadened from simple movement of money, to the application of funds to sustainable economic growth, through innovations such as microloan services which enable donations to be directed for a specific purpose.The MTI is a new not-for-profit trade association, dedicated to helping the beneficiaries, payers, banks, vendors, regulators and other key players to co-operate to the benefit of all. I am proud to be a founder director.”  Neil Burton
